People worldwide are ill because of oppression of various thyroid problems. This is attributed to the inefficiency of thyroid hormones to ensure enough separation in the body, so that the body can perform its basic functions

Gluten!! stop gluten even the smallest amount can case havoc on the thyroid.

Looks to me like you are on the right track, Kim! My family has a LOT of thyroid problems, obesity on both sides, and in the past 20 years (I’m in my fifties) my health can be DIRECTLY correlated to the percentage of raw food in my diet — i.e., when I was eating 90-100% raw I was feeling so good I couldn’t hardly STAND it, looking younger every day, excess weight melting off like butter. But when I go back to old habits (esp. grains, corn, rice, pasteurized milk products, refined and processed foods) the older I get the WORSE it gets. I am to the point now if I don’t really eat right I may as well not get out of bed in the morning because it would be too painful to try to walk — after a few weeks of “old style” eating!! WARNING: some of your closest friends who LOVE you dearly may try to get you off of raw diet. I guess it makes them feel threatened in some way. This has been as big — if not bigger — of a stumbling block to me in the past 20 years than anything else and is even worse that my old junk-food-junkie tendencies. Once a person says something NEGATIVE about your diet, NOTICE and SHUT UP — or get away from them. Nothing against them, but we have to eat right to survive AND feel good too!!!!

I believe I was missed diagnosed Hyperthyroidism about one year ago. In my quest to find the cure for this disease without traditional medications, which I am refusing to take, I found the raw food community. It was the best thing that could have ever happen to me. I can only commit to eating 70/30. Since becoming 70/30, my pulse went from 130 bpm to 85 – 90 bpm, my cholesterol went from 210 to 130, my blood pressure dropped from 125/95 to 105/65. My T3 total were as high as 488 down to 319 and my T-4 (thyroxine), total was as high as 23.3 down to 18.4 and TSH is -0.01 now 0.01. I know there is something else going on in my body which is causing my thyroid imbalance, yet no one can tell me what it is. I’m hoping to one day commit to becoming 100% raw in hopes that will cure this disease. But that’s hard for me with so many temptations of unhealthy food out there, but I’m going to keep trying. I don’t know what else I can do and I’m afraid, frankly I’m afraid that my last alternative will be to go on medication, which will kill me in itself.

Sign,
Is there hope for me (Kim Solomon)
